Equipment Ventilation
To ensure adequate cooling of the transceiver, 5-centimeter of unobstructed space must be
maintained around all sides of the unit except the bottom side. The ambient temperature
range of the transceiver is: -25°C to +55°C.
Fire Precautions
The equipment must not be operated in the presence of flammable gases or fumes as well
as any explosive atmosphere. Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment
constitutes a definite safety hazard.
Obtaining Licensing For Inmarsat Transceivers
Under rights given under ITU Radio Regulations, local telecommunications administrations
establish and enforce national rules and regulations governing types of emissions, power
levels, and other parameters that affect the purity of signal, which may be radiated in the
various frequency bands of the radio spectrum.
To legally operate Inmarsat equipment, it is necessary to obtain permission from the
local telecommunications regulatory authorities of the country you are operating from.
Using your equipment in any country without permission causes you to run the risk of
confiscation of the equipment by the local authorities. The normal procedure to bring such
equipment into another country is to apply for a license before travel. If a license has not
been obtained before travel, the equipment may be put in to storage by local authorities
until such time license is obtained.
Grounding, cables and
connections
Service
The chassis of the equipment must be
connected to an electrical ground. This
will minimise electric shock and mutual
interference. In short, the terminal must be
grounded to the vessel.
Do not attempt to access to the interior of the
terminal. Only qualified personnel authorized by
its manufacturer may perform service. Failure to
comply with this rule will result in the warranty
void.
Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages
may exist even with the power cable removed. To
avoid injuries, always disconnect power before
accessing the terminal.
